play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to find colors that you like. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the "painted" rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

I think a blue like "dignified" (# 6538) would look fantastic.

You can also take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

You can get color suggestions & for $5 they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.

Answer 4

just go white or cream, keep it neutral, or do a feature wall of a strong colour

Answer 5

What about a very deep red. If you decorate it correctly and use a color like that you could make it like a Mediterranean style room. that would look very nice. we have a deep red in our dining room. we have a very nice mediterranean style home!

Answer 6

Cobalt Blue walls
